Level Up in Martial World

Chapter 223: Looting the Corpse

Suddenly, Liao Mao's expression turned to horror as he saw the black-haired youth again. However, he was even more shocked seeing a familiar female beside him with a hesitant expression on her face, but her eyes burned upon seeing Liao Mao, as if she wanted to kill him with just her gaze.

"Shang Luo…" his eyes widened even more in shock before he gritted his teeth.

"Did you side with that monster? Aren't you afraid of trying the sect? You traitor," Liao Mao said with anger.

"You…" Shang Luo was stunned when she heard this as she looked at the man.

"Didn't you run away first, you bastard?" Her anger flared.

"You just abandoned your juniors running away. You are a coward…"

"No, I am not a coward," Liao Mao replied with gritted teeth, his expression morphed into a twisted face.

"I am your senior brother. My life is more important than yours. How can I die first?" His teeth started tethering as he had maddened eyes.

Shang Luo was stunned when she heard this, rendered speechless.

"So you wanted to save this senior brother of yours?" Lu Zhen whispered in her ears like a devil's whisper.

Shang Luo had a resigned expression as she said with a determined glint, "you can kill him."

"Wait, what?" Liao Mao was stunned when he heard this, feeling that something was wrong with their conversation.

"Your dear junior sister wanted to save your life. However, seeing you being so scummy…" Lu Zhen's laughter resounded in the place like a villain.

At that moment, Liao Mao knew that he fucked up.

"Wait, ju…" Liao Mao was cleanly sliced in half as well, just like all the others, making a gory scene, while Jiang Xue fell to the floor.

"It doesn't make a difference if you are a third-stage martial artist or a martial trainee; they all die with a simple slash…" Lu Zhen muttered as he looked at the corpse of Liao Mao with a cold expression.

"Alright, from now on, you are my slave." Lu Zhen's eyes flashed with an amused glint as he looked at Shang Luo.

"You…"

"Didn't you promise? Besides, you have no choice." A devilish smile appeared on his face as he pointed at his right arm.

Shang Luo was terrified as she looked at where Lu Zhen was pointing at, immediately bowing and falling to the floor.

"Yes, master," she said.

"Good, you can leave now." Lu Zhen replied with an uncaring expression.

Shang Luo was stunned when she heard this. "What do you mean?"

"I said you can leave now. Your job is done. Remember not to tell anyone about these senior brothers and your companion who were killed by me, or you might face terrible consequences that will make you regret. But you will be too late to regret it."

Lu Zhen said with a mysterious expression on his face.

"Well, now leave."

"But… but what will I tell the elder?"

"That is none of my concern. Say whatever you want." Lu Zhen's expression turned cold. "As for what excuse to make, not my problem."

"Leave."

"Yes." Shang Luo decisively left as she could feel that her death was near if she didn't follow Lu Zhen's order.

Her figure vanished as she travelled in the forest.

"Now where was I?" Lu Zhen stretched his body as he looked at the bound body of Jiang Xue.

"Well, Miss Xue, how are you?"

He walked up to her as Lu Zhen untied her.

"Cough, cough…" The moment she was untied, she started to cough, with thin red marks from the rope on her snow-white skin, making her look like she was being abused.

"This is quite a strong rope…" Lu Zhen thought as his eyes flashed with a golden light looking at the rope.

[Dan Ru Rope]

[Grade: Qi grade]

[Remark: Made from the pelts of a beast that is at least in the third-stage martial realm]

Lu Zhen looked at this with a thoughtful expression.

"The outside world is truly extraordinary. These bunch of chickens have such great items just to tie someone…" He looked at the corpse Liao Mao with lit eyes as he started to loot the corpse, ignoring the gaze of Jiang Xue entirely.

However, Jiang Xue didn't mind as she looked at Lu Zhen with a reverent gaze. "He is quite handsome." She secretly blushed as she finally looked at him carefully, which made butterflies circle in her mind.

Lu Zhen, however, didn't find anything in the man's possession except for a single marble ring.

"What's this?" Lu Zhen thought as his eyes turned golden before he looked at the item.

[Store Ring]

[Grade: Intent]

[Remark: Made from a special material which acts like a dimension where one could store things, just like a first-stage martial artist.]

Lu Zhen's eyes widened when he saw that he had been lacking a storage device to store up all his loot for a long time, and now finally, he was able to get one.

"In the future, this will be quite convenient…" He nodded his head as Lu Zhen finally looked at Jiang Xue.

"Follow me." His expression turned cold.

"Yes, young master." Jiang Xue nodded her head and started to follow him, trailing behind him.

After walking for some time aimlessly, finally, two men suddenly materialised in front of them.

One of them was a very young-looking man with a business smile, and the other was a middle-aged man with a casual, cool attitude.

They were Lu Ming and Fang Yin.

"Ancestor Lu, Elder Wu Di." Lu Zhen respectfully greeted both of them, while Jiang Xue was stunned before she followed in his footsteps.

"You are a smart girl, Lu Zhen. Take her as a concubine." Lu Ming nodded his head as he looked at Jiang Xue with a satisfied expression.

"Eh." Lu Zhen was stunned when he heard this.

"You are already old enough to have multiple wives and concubines. Don't think you can hide from me. You already have two; make this girl your concubine as well. I want lots of children from you. As the young master of the family, you should have at least twenty concubines."

Lu Zhen was stumped.
